Vanmeter is accused of breaking the bones of his 3½-month-old son in late June, according to county records. Police reported an investigation began after a hospital reported the child’s injuries were indicative of abuse.

According to the county Probation Department, the boy’s mother said she and Vanmeter didn’t hurt the boy. She said he was injured by doctors.

Medina County Common Pleas Judge Christopher J. Collier scheduled Vanmeter for a Feb. 12 trial and ordered Vanmeter back into the county jail on $300,000 bond. In addition, Vanmeter requested a new attorney. His previous attorney, Cara Ford, withdrew as counsel.
